HeatingUp Impact Index: Team Impact Spotlight

PLAYER NAME ROLE TIER MPG USAGE TIER PPG RPG APG STK (SPG + BPG) IMPACT INDEX NOTES AWARDS
David Robinson Starter/Star 24.5 High 17.7 8.5 1.3 2.0 77.09 Working through an injury-shortened season, Robinson still looked like the defensive center of gravity whenever he played. His combination of rim protection, rebounding and efficient interior scoring remained central to San Antonio’s structure despite appearing in only six games.
Sean Elliott Starter/Star 35.7 High 14.9 4.9 3.2 1.2 63.36 Operating as the primary wing scorer, Elliott carried a larger offensive burden after returning from injury. He handled perimeter creation, secondary playmaking and floor spacing, giving the Spurs a versatile forward capable of impacting several phases of the offense.
Dominique Wilkins Key Contributor 30.9 High 18.2 6.4 1.9 1.1 69.55 Filling the sixth-man scoring role, Wilkins brought instant offense to the second unit. Even at 37, he could still manufacture points off isolations and transition opportunities, leading the team in scoring average while coming off the bench for much of the season. 6th Man of the Year Voting: 7th Place (1997)
Avery Johnson Starter/Star 32.5 Medium 10.5 1.9 6.8 1.5 49.85 Directing the offense as the starting point guard, Johnson prioritized tempo control and ball movement. His assist production drove much of San Antonio’s half-court execution, and he rarely forced shots outside the flow of the offense.
Vernon Maxwell Starter/Star 28.7 Medium 12.9 2.2 2.1 1.5 45.98 Functioning as a high-volume perimeter scorer, Maxwell supplied much of the team’s backcourt shot creation. His efficiency fluctuated, but his willingness to attack from deep added an element the roster otherwise lacked.
Vinny Del Negro Key Contributor 31.2 Medium 12.3 2.9 3.2 0.9 44.58 Sliding between shooting guard and secondary playmaker duties, Del Negro provided efficient scoring and reliable decision-making. He often served as the connective piece between the starters and bench groups.
Will Perdue Starter/Star 29.5 Medium 8.7 9.8 0.6 2.1 51.31 Anchoring the middle for much of the season, Perdue focused on screening, rebounding and interior defense rather than touches. His work on the glass helped stabilize a frontcourt dealing with Robinson’s absence.
Monty Williams Key Contributor 20.7 Medium 9.0 3.2 1.4 1.6 35.42 Playing an energy-wing role, Williams defended multiple positions and scored efficiently within the offense. He wasn’t a featured option, but his activity level consistently showed up in winning plays.
Carl Herrera Starter/Star 24.5 Medium 8.0 4.5 0.7 1.5 35.57 Taking on expanded frontcourt minutes, Herrera supplied toughness and interior defense while helping cover for injuries. His offensive contributions mostly came through hustle plays and finishes around the basket.
Cory Alexander Key Contributor 18.2 Low 7.2 1.5 3.2 1.2 27.09 As a rookie reserve guard, Alexander brought pace and outside shooting to the second unit. His ability to handle the ball and knock down threes hinted at a larger offensive role in the future.
Greg Anderson Key Contributor 20.2 Low 3.9 5.5 0.4 1.6 23.94 Anderson’s value came almost entirely from physical interior play. Rebounding, shot contesting and low-maintenance offense allowed him to fill important frontcourt minutes across all 82 games.
Charles Smith Bench 17.3 Low 4.6 3.4 0.7 1.9 21.20 Used as a reserve forward, Smith provided defensive length and veteran experience. His offensive role stayed limited, but he remained a useful rotational option when healthy.
Jamie Feick Bench 16.2 Low 3.8 5.6 0.7 0.7 21.60 Feick carved out minutes through rebounding and physicality. Most of his offensive production came from second-chance opportunities rather than designed plays.
Stephen Howard Bench 9.9 Low 3.7 1.3 0.1 1.4 13.00 Howard appeared in a limited role but flashed defensive activity on the wing. His athleticism helped him contribute despite a small offensive workload.
Gaylon Nickerson Bench 12.0 Low 4.3 1.3 0.3 0.3 12.40 Nickerson saw very limited action, operating mostly as depth on the perimeter. His brief appearances were centered on providing scoring punch in short stretches.
Devin Gray Bench 8.0 Low 3.3 1.7 0.0 0.3 10.60 Gray’s minutes were sparse, but he played with an aggressive attacking style whenever he got on the floor. Most of his opportunities came in late-game situations.
Jason Sasser Bench 10.3 Low 2.8 1.2 0.2 0.3 9.00 A developmental wing at this stage, Sasser provided occasional shooting and athleticism in limited appearances.
Darrin Hancock Bench 8.0 Low 4.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 10.00 Hancock appeared in only one game but showed the all-around skill set that had made him a useful reserve on previous teams.
Joe Courtney Bench 9.6 Low 2.6 1.4 0.0 0.0 8.00 Courtney served as deep frontcourt depth and was primarily asked to provide physical minutes around the basket.
Tim Kempton Bench 5.9 Low 0.4 0.8 0.2 0.2 3.20 Kempton’s role was limited to spot appearances, where he supplied veteran size and frontcourt insurance.
TEAM TOTALS 240.6 90.5 39.4 20.3 13.2 627.34 San Antonio leaned heavily on wing scoring from Sean Elliott and Dominique Wilkins while patching together the frontcourt during David Robinson’s injury-shortened campaign. The roster remained competitive through balanced guard play, rebounding depth and a defense-first identity.
